Larry fell to the ground as soon as he finished his sentence. His face was blank and lifeless. `
Kieran raised an eyebrow.
He had not heard of the name Komden from the memories he had received.
However, the title of King of the Underworld was enough to explain everything.
"Sphendix has put a bounty on our heads!
What's the difference if we add Mr. Dumb G to the mix? "
Kieran asked calmly.
He needed to know more information about this Mr. G.
"Of course it's different!
If Sphendix rules the city during the day, then Mr. Dumb G rules the city at night!
If Sphendix rules the city during the day, then Mr. Dumb G rules the city at night!
If Sphendix had only put a bounty on our heads, we might have had a chance of survival. Now that we've got Mr. Dumb G on our heads, we really have no chance of survival! "
Riley looked like he was about to cry.
"Who said we have no chance of survival?"
Kieran could not help but shake his head when he saw that Larry had given up. His fear had taken over him, and he had fallen into despair. He had not realized the crux of the matter.
"You are the Shadow Stinger! Of course you have a way out!
Even if you can't run away, both Sphendix and Mr. Dumb G would be more than willing to accept your loyalty!
But I'm different!
I'm just an informant! In the eyes of those two giants, I'm no different from a useless informant! "
Riley couldn't hold back her tears anymore and they flowed out as if she had touched her sore spot.
"Alright, put away your tears!"
It's not too late to cry when you're on your deathbed!
Didn't you realize that we have a chance of survival? "
Kieran said in a low voice.
He did not want to see anyone crying, especially a man.
"Survival?
Are you trying to assassinate the higher-ups of Sphendix?
"Stop your wishful thinking! Sphendix's security is almost as good as the military's. Even if you are the Shadow Stinger, you can't do that! "
Larry was still scared, so he did not realize what Kieran was trying to say. He was too slow to realize what Kieran was trying to say. `
"I'm talking about Sphendix and Mr. Dumb G!
"Don't forget. You just found out from Creedo that the person who ordered him to cause trouble for Lerner was Mr. G! And this Mr. F * ck G is also looking for trouble with you because you unintentionally took in Lerner! This means that Mr. G cares a lot about Lerner, or should I say, it's the thing in Lerner's hand! "
Similarly, Sphendix is after you because of the item in Lerner's possession. Let's put ourselves in Mr. G's shoes — Sphendix and Mr. G. Because of the thing in Lerner's hand, what's the relationship like? "
"Even without Lerner, what's the relationship between Sphendix and Mr. G? Don't tell me that both sides are saints and have no ambition to unify this city! "
Kieran said straightforwardly.
As for what Riley had said about assassinating the higher-ups of Sphendix?
There was only one person in the top management of Sphendix: Sphendix.
Apart from having the infamous' Executioner 'Kailuark as his security consultant, this man also had nearly a thousand security guards protecting him and his company.
Kieran had experienced the terror of human wave tactics before. He did not think that his current strength would allow him to take on a thousand-man team.
On top of that, it would be a thousand-man team that could rival an army.
Therefore, when Kieran had found out about Sphendix's security, he did not even think about assassinating him.
When Kieran made things clear, Riley finally came back to his senses.
"Sphendix and Mr. G have a grudge against each other! I've always heard about the news of their fight! "
So, it's impossible for them to work together!
We still have a chance! "
Riley, who still had a glimmer of hope, quickly pulled himself together.
"But it's a fact that Sphendix has put a bounty on our heads!
Mr. G might not work with Sphendix, but if he could get rid of us, it would boost his reputation and make Sphendix look bad. I'm sure Mr. G won't mind if I embarrass Sphendix while I'm at it!
This is not good for us!
"If we take advantage of the rivalry between Mr. G and Sphendix to start a fight …" Chen Zhao said.
Riley pulled himself together and started to think about how to get out of this predicament, but as soon as the idea popped up, he rejected it.
"No! No way! "
"Sphendix and Mr. G have been fighting each other for a long time, so they must know each other very well. If we want to create conflicts, misunderstandings, and provoke an all-out war between them, we won't be able to do it with just some small tricks!"
"We need something crueler and more intense: assassination!"
Riley said this. His eyes lit up.
"Assassinate the people of one side and provoke a war!"
"In fact, we don't even need to provoke them. The unharmed party will intervene!"
"Sphendix and Mr. G are too difficult to deal with. But for Kieran, assassinating some small leaders should be a piece of cake, right? "
Riley looked at Kieran with hope in his eyes.
His meaning couldn't be clearer.
However, Kieran shook his head.
"The two of them are behemoths. They're more concerned about their own interests than their personal lives!"
"Unless that person is the leader of these two behemoths!"
Otherwise, they won't be able to do anything. If we do that, we might anger Sphendix and Mr. G, and they might come after us with everything they have!
Moreover, doing so might really anger Sphendix or Mr. G, and they might even go all out to deal with us! "Chen Zhao said.
Kieran rejected Riley's suggestion with a reasonable reason.
In fact, if there had been enough time, Kieran would not have minded taking the risk and trying out Riley's method.
In fact, if there had been enough time, Kieran would not have minded taking the risk and trying out Riley's method.
Assassinating one or two minor leaders wasn't a big deal for the two gigantic organizations. In fact, more people would be happy about it.
They would have two more chances to make a name for themselves.
However, what if the small leaders were killed in batches?
That would have sent the rest of them into a state of panic.
The position that they had been fighting for would become a hot potato in an instant.
Then, just as Riley had said, the unharmed party would make their move.
Right at that moment … Kieran would make his move on the unharmed party. If everything went smoothly, both sides would suffer heavy losses.
Add to that those who fanned the flames and took advantage of the situation, and the two giants would most likely be wiped out in a few days.
Do not overestimate human nature.
There might be no help in the hour of need.
No one would hit a man when he was down. No one would hit him when he was down.
However, there was a prerequisite to this plan: enough time!
There might only be one boss in a behemoth organization, but there were many subordinates.
From the investigation to the setup, even with Larry's help, Kieran only had two weeks to complete the task, so it was hard for him to make ends meet.
Moreover, Kieran had not been completely free for the past two weeks.
He had to complete the Main Mission!
Maybe there were some Sub Missions involved in the assassination.
But for some uncertain Sub Missions … Should he give up on the Main Mission?
Kieran did not want to do that.
As Kieran's attributes increased, if he failed the Main Mission and his highest attribute dropped by a level, it would be a heart-wrenching loss.
That was because it meant a lot of Points and Skill Points.
As Kieran's strength increased, the number of Points and Skill Points would increase.
For example, during his first dungeon run, the cost of upgrading a skill from Beginner to Master level had only been 3,000 Points and 2 Skill Points.
But now?
Upgrading from Expert to Master level had cost Kieran 12,000 Points and 8 Skill Points.
If he wanted to upgrade his Perceptive Sense after that, he would no longer need normal Skill Points. He would need Golden Skill Points.
That was almost equivalent to the income of a dungeon run.
Kieran did not want to bear such a loss, nor was he willing to bear it.
Moreover, Kieran had a more labor-saving method.
"Damn it! Those evil capitalists! "
"Does that mean we have to assassinate Sphendix or Mr. G?"
"How is that even possible?"
"They have so many guards, they could drown us with just a mouthful of spit from each of them!"
Kieran's reasoning easily convinced Larry, who was not willing to take the risk.
Larry couldn't help but curse, unwilling to give up.
"Even if I could assassinate Sphendix or Mr. G, I would still have to!
"I have to kill both Sphendix and Mr. G at the same time!"
Otherwise, Sphendix or Mr. G would have the chance to unify the city. No matter who became the ruler of the city, they would not let go of anyone who could threaten them!
Kieran emphasized the mistake in Larry's words.
Larry was stunned, but he quickly understood what Kieran was trying to say.
"What should we do?"
Larry looked at Kieran helplessly.
"Sphendix has put a bounty on our heads! I also took out the security consultant who was a pain in the ass. It's going to be hard for us to deal with that!
"But Mr. G is different!"
Of course, don't tell me Credo is Mr. G's subordinate! "
Kieran joked.
"Credo? Of course not. He's a rule-breaker. No one will ever truly like you! "
"Mr. Dumb G would have skinned him alive if it weren't for the fact that he would need his help at certain times.
But we will have to pay a huge price to get Mr. G to protect us!
You are the Shadow Stinger, so your strength is the best bargaining chip. As for me, I'm afraid I'll have to go bankrupt! "
Larry cried as he thought about the price he would have to pay.
"Damn it! If I had Leonard's stuff, we would not have to pay anything to get Mr. G to protect us! "
Larry could not help but feel regret.
If he could go back in time to a day ago, he would have spent a lot of money to hire real bodyguards to protect Leonard.
"Only you, me, and Sphendix know that Leonard's stuff is not with us. Mr. G doesn't know that!
Moreover, Mr. G would never trust the Sphendix Organization! "
Kieran smiled at Larry as he told him the plan he had come up with.
"You mean..."
Larry's eyes widened as he looked at Kieran. He was shocked by Kieran's words.
"We are now Mr. G's collaborators!
Remember, we are collaborators! We are not asking for protection!
"That's because we have something that Mr. Dumb G wants!"
Kieran said.
